Plot[]
Junior Asparagus and Laura Carrot discover that there is one piece of chocolate cream pie leftover. As they begin to quarrel on who will get the piece, Mother Carrot, who is leaving, suggests sharing the piece. They then begin to quarrel on who will cut the piece in half, since they think each one will give themselves a bigger piece. They both come to the decision to have someone else do it, and come across Larry the Lumberjack in the woods outside of Bumblyburg. He decides to cut it using his chainsaw, but this only dents the pan and shreds the pie into millions of tiny, chocolate blobs. Upon Junior discovering that Laura's side is bigger, Larry suggests they go to the Bumblyburg Research Institute. While there, Archibald Asparagus tries slicing the remains of the pie with a laser beam. However, this completely vaporizes the pie due to the laser being set to slice bagels. Junior and Laura then walk home together, realizing that they have learned about sharing the hard way, and that the situation could have been "as easy as pie".
